Title: MAME will not run full screen loading from front end
Post by: zmanpcxp on May 11, 2008, 10:02:04 am

I am running MAME version .72. I am using it because it runs all of my roms. I have tried the mala and atomic front ends and whenever they launch MAME it is in a window. Whenever I drag the rom to MAME it runs in fullscreen, dragging the rom to MAME is equivalent to windows doing an openwith to MAME. Whenever I open a rom from command prompt MAME loads the rom in a window. I would like MAME to run full screen. Does anyone have a suggestion? your help would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks,
Zach

Mame has a parameter in the mame.ini file that controls this.  I assume .72 is the same.  Edit mame.ini and change:

Code: [Select]
